So what does a starter motor do?
A starter motor is a small electric motor that is attached to an internal combustion engine to turn your engine flywheel ring gear. An electric starter motor will also utilise a starter solenoid which acts as a switch for the power coming via battery cables directly from your battery. As you turn the ignition key the starter relay activates to send power through the starter solenoid to the starter motor.
How do I know I have a bad starter motor?
As with any part on a vehicle, these electric motors degrade over time from use, heat and just general old age. Whilst they may give an indication of possible starter motor failure a bad starter motor can occur at any time.
Corroded battery terminals, grinding of the starter motor gear, blown fuses or relays are just some of the more obvious signs your starter motor requires replacement.
One of the easiest ways to see if you do or don't need to replace a starter motor is to initially check your car battery for sufficient electric current. A low battery will not have sufficient power to engage the starter gear and this check of battery voltage will rule out a faulty car starter motor. This is also shown by dash lights that dip as you turn the key in the ignition switch.
If you starter motor grinds or smoke comes from the unit this is an easy cue that a starter motor fail is possibly on the cards in the not too distant future. It is also a good idea to replace starter motor battery cables and cable terminals if these are also showing signs of wear and corrosion. That way your starting system will have the best chance of turning over your engine.
